Abstract

Principles of operation of large-scale photodetector arrays for image visualization in a submillimeter spectral range are considered. Parameters of a thermal picture produced on an intermediate screen by a submillimeter component of radiation of an object with a temperature of about 300 K are estimated. Photodetector array parameters required for registration of the intermediate screen radiation are analyzed. The possibility of creating large-scale photodetector arrays on PbSnTe : In films for imaging objects with a room temperature without additional submillimeter illumination is shown.
